Tuesday OOTD/Recent Purchases

[FormerCityGirl]

Joanis- Love the skirt! Is that a textured rosette fabric? I've been eyeing something similar and may have to pick up some to do a skirt. I'm not loving anything on the racks lately.
Ditzy and RunForrest-Great pattern mixing!
Harleys-Love the horse dress. Have you seen these red horse skinnies at Urban Outfitters yet? www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=23295959x&parentid=W_APP_JEANS My stylist and I were just discussing these since she is very into horses. I may have to get the info on your dress for her. She mostly buys black stuff for work, but is trying to branch out.
HZ-Love the Cynthia Rowley! I have so much of her stuff it's crazy.

Here's my latest haul. I was thinking of sending back one of the jeans, but I love all the colors and fabric. Picked up some more Alisa Michelle this weekend. I'm either going to end up repping for her or getting a line under her name at the rate I'm going.

Lot's of great outfits today!

Teeha..haven't seen you around these parts in awhile. Hi ;D

Renata you look super cute today.

I haven't played in a good few days, and I've wanted to but I've been so busy with creating my shop.

Yeah. I thought about wearing color pumps but am completely out of my comfort zone that I figured I'd go with a safe shoe. But now that I think about it, I should have just worn the color shoes because I am out of my comfort zone. Ha.

Are you carrying the orange bag today? That would give you a pop of color too.

FCG- it is textured- got it a couple years ago and it's definitely been one of my favorites. Here's a close up
(the colors are showing up weirdly, but I promise it's a uniform purple color)

Nope. Decided to carry my white Kate Spade today. I'll definitely have to add a pop of color next time I wear this outfit.

Thanks for the pic! That's very close to the fabric I've been eyeing. DH never discourages my sewing pieces instead of shopping. I have some jackets to make, but still can't get motivated when the weather is good. He sees more of the hobby aspect and less of the adding to my closet.

Teeah - Welcome back! Congrats on the house!
Ditzy - Love the look!
Hz - very cute!
RunForest - Love the pattern mix!

[hz80408]

FCG- great haul!

[carylee07]

From the KS flash sale

[beahbia12]

Cute shirt cab, is it LC? I loved how it looked on the hanger, but it just looked weird on my body. I love it on you though!

[glw]

On my way to a martini lunch for my birthday. ;D

I've been MIA and still have to post pics and updates from this weekend, but here are two recent outfits just for funsies

[runforrest]

Happy birthday glw!
Cab - I love those pants...does ASOS run true to size? I've been on the website before but it is overwhelming and I get flustered.
Carylee - love that top from KS! And those bangles!

I have a meeting today, and I am taking H back with the realtor to see the house I saw on Sunday (H had to work so I went alone). I REALLY like this one, definitely my favorite so far (and we don't have much time!) so I hope I can get H on board!

this skirt is so cute!

[karebear304]

Yay, Teeah is here!!

You girls sure now how to make a girl feel cute when she's all waddling around!

hz - the jeans I linked to in the maternity post above are the ones I have on. They're these - I have just regular dark denim, but I'm linking to Piperlime b/c I got them here for the sale price and I know the denim ones pop back up from time to time:

mrsguz, where are your jeans from? Love them! You look great.
Welcome back, t!
cab, do you have a link to the red skinnies? I've been lookin'.
Here's yesterday: skirt is a No 2 pencil. It's so flattering and a great color, but I wish I'd been able to size down. I got it on super clearance for $20 so I can't complain but I think the next size down would have been better. I got lots of complements on this outfit.

and today. Just need a baguette

Thanks! They're from H&M.

[hz80408]

Happy birthday GLW! Fun lunch!

Kare- cute! Now that SIL is PG and into fashion, trying to keep my eye out for her.

Alicia- cute! What size did you get in the skirt? I have a 4 that I'd trade for a 6...

Love this material!

FCG -- I often wonder why I run out of hangers, and it has a lot to do with my sewing projects, lol. It is often cheaper than shopping, and probably what DH appreciates most is that I can talk myself out of purchases sometimes by saying "I could make that," even when I never do.

It's a 6 actually! Do you have the same color?

HA! Yes! I said that on a whim; but I'd be willing to swap if you want. I've worn mine 2 or 3 times. I'd get it dry-cleaned before shipping. PM me if you're interested!
